Along the way, Lu Yin's biggest feeling was the coexistence of people and cards. The Lost Clan cultivators were holding cards all the time. They did not treat cards as tools, but as family members.
When the Lost Clan held the Upper Three Sections, anyone who did not belong to the Lost Clan wanted to get a card, but the card must be willing.
The card was not alive, but it could be drawn out. This was very strange. It could only be said that it had coexisted with people for too long and had developed some kind of spirituality or was close to some kind of aura.
If so, did Dan Gobi also have an aura that he wanted to get close to?
Aura could be emotions, aspirations, power, or any other similar existence.
Then, his previous heroic desire to break free from the universe's cage and see the outside world resonated with Dan Gobi's aura, but it was not enough.
Dan Gobi had never had a master, so it did not rely on power or emotions.
Lu Yin walked through the street calmly and finally came to the end of the street, which was the wasteland of this planet.
The street stretched far away, where the Lost Clan gathered. The place that could not become a street was naturally a wasteland, but it was a wasteland with good scenery.
"Senior, you can go back."
"Master Lu, what are you doing?"
Lu Yin looked up at the sky, "Here, I can draw out the super-ancient card."
Shan Gu said, "As long as it is within the Lost Clan's territory, the super-ancient card can be drawn out. But, how does Master Lu want to draw it out?"
Lu Yin sat cross-legged, "I don't know. Let's think about it."
Shan Gu looked at Lu Yin's back and responded. He bowed again and left.
Lu Yin really did not know how to draw out the card. He also did not know whether the card would be useful to him in the future, but it was something that was valued by the Eternal Realm Qing Xian in human form. It would be best if he could get it.
It was too dangerous to stay in the Lost Clan. The hive civilization was not stupid. The next attack might be targeted.
The card might be useless in his hands, but it would be troublesome if it fell into the hands of the Eternal Realm Qing Xian in human form. It was a threat to the Startle Gate.
Lu Yin slowly closed his eyes and his consciousness dissipated. He quietly felt the universe's starry sky, the local customs of the Lost Clan, and their feelings of coexisting with the card.
In the blink of an eye, a year had passed.
A year passed in the outside world, but there was no concept of time in the mirage domain. Whenever Lu Yin opened the domain again, those people would come out. However, an incomparably long period of time might have passed for them, and it was unknown how many of them would be able to break through.
Lu Yin still couldn't find a way to draw out the card, but he did come up with an idea.
Since the Lost Clansmen coexisted with the card, and the card even gave birth to an emotional spirituality similar to choice, then, was it the same for hatred?
If that was the case, would killing Dan Xiu draw out the Dan Gobi?
He could only give it a try, but he wasn't in a hurry. He still needed to be more confident. But that didn't stop him from reminding Grand Elder Shan Gu not to kill Shan Ji yet.
Soon after, another year passed. The children of the Lost Clan came to this wasteland to play.
Besides Great Elder Shan Gu, no one else knew that Lu Yin was here.
Lu Yin had been sitting cross-legged in the wasteland for two years. He had been exposed to the wind and the sun, and his entire body had been covered in green grass. The grass had covered his entire body, making it impossible to see his human form.
The children who were playing around giggled as they ran past him. Then, they turned in circles, threw stones, and plucked grass. One of them accidentally bumped into Lu Yin, causing them to shriek and run away in a hurry.
Lu Yin opened his eyes, smiled, and continued.
The children came with their elders, but those elders couldn't see Lu Yin at all.
Lu Yin was obviously sitting there, but no one could see him. In the end, they could only disperse.
From the beginning to the end, Great Elder Shan Gu didn't intervene. He just watched calmly, hoping that Lu Yin could draw out the ancient card.
A few months later, an unexpected person came to the Lost Clan's spacetime and threatened to look for Lu Yin. It was Mie Wuhuang.
No one expected Mie Wuhuang to come.
Great Elder Shan Gu looked at Mie Wuhuang speechlessly and said helplessly, "Why are you here?"
Mie Wuhuang sneered, "Old Shan Gu, don't pretend. Lu Yin is here, right?"
Great Elder Shan Gu looked solemn, "Is that how you address Master Lu?"
Mie Wuhuang disdainfully said, "Why? Do I need to explain our friendship to you?"
Shan Gu felt that these words were familiar. Who said it before?
Right, Ghost Monkey, that guy said something similar.
They knew the relationship between Ghost Monkey and Master Lu. What about this guy?
Mie Wuhuang said, "Back in the spiritualized universe, if it wasn't for my help, he wouldn't have gotten so many spirit seeds. Also, in the consciousness universe, it was my help that made it so smoothly. Not to mention the drop of water that blocked the Eternal Life Realm insect. Hey, did you see that drop of water? I am the benefactor of the Tian Yuan Universe. Is it wrong to call him that?"
Shan Gu said helplessly, "Well, benefactor, why are you looking for Master Lu?"
Mie Wuhuang was angry at the mention of this. When he blocked the attack of the Eternal Life Realm insect, he enjoyed the peak of his life. He was worshipped by the entire universe and feared by the Eternal Life Realm.
This made him have the ambition to break through to the Eternal Life Realm.
But he knew that it was extremely difficult to break through to the Eternal Life Realm. Even Yu Sang Tian couldn't do it, let alone him. But as long as there was a little hope, he had to work hard. First, resources.
He originally thought that Lu Yin would be rewarded after his return and the crisis of the Tian Yuan Universe was resolved. Of course, he was the one who had contributed the most.
Jiang Feng, the Three Realms, and the Ferryman of the River of Time had to step aside.
Without him, they would all be dead. He was the benefactor of the entire Tian Yuan Universe.
However, up until now, Lu Yin had not done anything about it at all. No, a little. The Nirvana Tree technique had given him a green dot of light that allowed him to cultivate the Nirvana Tree technique. However, he was not the only one who had obtained it. Many others had obtained it as well, including those who had not made any contributions. That did not count.
He wanted real rewards, resources, status, and cultivation.
But as he waited, Lu Yin had sent a group of people to the mirage domain to cultivate, and he hadn't been among them.
He had asked around and learned that the mirage domain was a place where the River of Time flowed without any concept of time. Was it actually that kind of place? Was it where the River of Time had appeared?
His hair stood on end when he heard that. How could he be left behind?
He had even gone to the Plain Master's Sect. How preposterous! How hateful! Lu Yin hadn't even given him the right to cultivate and had given it to someone else. It was too hateful. He had made great contributions.
Thus, he had come here to seek justice from Lu Yin.
Just as he was about to say this, Mie Wuhuang suddenly thought of something and glanced at Shan Gu. He couldn't say anything, as Old Shan Gu was so respectful to Lu Yin. Would he still be able to see him if he told him?
After thinking about it, his expression changed. He bared his teeth and smiled, revealing his snow-white teeth. "There's something that Lu Yin left me with when he left the spiritualized universe. He told me to give it to him when I saw him in the Tian Yuan Universe."
Shan Gu stared at Mie Wuhuang suspiciously.
Mie Wuhuang's smile was very sincere.
After a while, Shan Gu nodded. "I see. But Master Lu is in seclusion, so it's not appropriate to give it to him now. Why don't you come back after a while?"
Mie Wuhuang's eyes flashed. "That's fine. Of course, I can't disturb his cultivation. I'll leave now. Right, it's best if you don't mention this to him."
"Why?" Shan Gu was even more suspicious. There was something wrong with this Mie Wuhuang.
Mie Wuhuang made a shushing gesture. "I'm doing this for your own good. The thing that he gave me seems to be related to his cultivation. If I didn't give it to him in time, it would be bad if something went wrong. But that's not very likely. After all, he's in seclusion, which means that he doesn't need it for the time being. Alright, I'm leaving."
"Wait." Elder Shan Gu hurriedly stopped Mie Wuhuang and stared at him. "It's related to cultivation?"
Mie Wuhuang nodded.
Elder Shan Gu hesitated. He didn't know if Mie Wuhuang was telling the truth, but Lu Yin was now thinking of a way to guide Shan Gobi. He wasn't really cultivating, so it wouldn't be a problem to disturb him. If this guy's thing was really useful to Master Lu, then a slight delay could cause major problems.
In comparison, it wouldn't be a problem to bring Mie Wuhuang over without disturbing Master Lu.
Thinking of this, he looked deeply into Mie Wuhuang's eyes. "You better be telling the truth. Master Lu is doing something very important right now. It's directly related to the Immortal Realm. I can take you to see him, but if you're lying, you'll have to bear the consequences."
Mie Wuhuang frowned and felt uneasy. He wanted to seek justice from Lu Yin, but if he disturbed Lu Yin's cultivation, then …
"Well, I'll come again next time." He shrank back.
Shan Gu didn't want to delay Lu Yin. "No, since it's related to cultivation, then come with me to see Master Lu."
"No, that thing might not be that important."
"It's not up to you whether it's important or not."
"What if we disturb him?
Maybe next time. "
"You have to come with me to see Master Lu no matter what, unless you're lying to me." Elder Shan Gu's gaze was deep.
Mie Wuhuang's face twitched. He'd gone too far this time. He'd really scared this old man, but now he shrank back. He recalled how decisive Lu Yin had been when he'd fought against Yu Sangtian and the other powerhouses. His legs trembled at the thought of this. What if Lu Yin used the same strength he'd used against the Eternal Realm monster on him?
He looked at his arm and turned to leave. "Maybe next time."
"No, just this time. There can't be any delays."
"Don't worry, there won't be any delays."
"Are you lying to me?"
"No, Old Shan Gu, you have to trust me and listen to me."
"Then take out the thing, and I'll give it to Master Lu."
"How can that be? Get out of my way."
"Give it to me."
"Get out of my way, or I won't be polite."
"Sure, let's see how you'll be."
Elder Shan Gu took out his Aurora Card. He obviously wasn't Mie Wuhuang's match, but this was the Lost Clan.
Mie Wuhuang gritted his teeth and was about to say something when they heard a voice at the same time. "Mie Wuhuang, come here."
Mie Wuhuang's expression changed; he'd been discovered.
Elder Shan Gu put away the Aurora Card and stared at Mie Wuhuang. "Sorry to disturb Master Lu, but you better not be lying to me. Otherwise, I'll spread this news, and you won't have a good life in the future."
Mie Wuhuang was furious. "I saved your entire Tianyuan Universe."
"That's not a reason for you to disturb Master Lu's seclusion."
"If not for you, I would have left long ago." Mie Wuhuang really wanted to beat Shan Gu to death. This old man was so stupid.
